DVR Multisite

Built for broadcasters.

Relay is built on open industry protocols, so your workflow isn’t held hostage by a proprietary format. And because Relay is part of the full Sardius ecosystem, you get better quality and the flexibility of a true broadcast workflow. Run from a simple browser dashboard, so a volunteer with little technical knowledge can operate what in the past would have taken an engineer.

Reliable playout, connection or not.

Any HLS stream.

Hands-off capture.

If it’s HLS, Relay can pull it. Give it a stream URL and it tracks the live edge to local disk automatically, no one babysitting a record button.

Not a single segment lost.

Advanced failover and automatic retries handle network blips, codec swaps, and server hiccups on their own.

Progressive playout starts VOD archives while they’re still downloading, so nobody waits on a full file.

Relay Specs

What's in Relay 1.0

Everything Relay handles, from the first frame it records to the last output in the rack. Playout, outputs, production, and management in one box.

Playout

Time Slip Playout:

DVR with cue points

Playout from chapter markers

Playout of live stream and/or VOD content

Broadcast-standard playout quality

Outputs

Dual 4K out

4x HD out

SDI, HDMI, and DisplayPort playout, so it fits whatever’s already in the rack

Production

Overlay injection, for lower thirds and graphics on top of any source

WebRTC ingest and playout, so a live presentation or a remote guest drops straight into the composite, full screen or picture-in-picture

Multitrack audio, so translation feeds and separate mixes travel with the program

Management

Local Web UI for the person standing in the room

Remote updates and management, pushed without

a site visit

Fleet management, for teams running Relay across more than one campus or venue

SCP integration, for teams that already move files through an existing pipeline
